# Dead Center vs Color Switch

The clearest difference is review sentiment: Color Switch at 100% against Dead Center's 62%. Color Switch also leads on rating (4.0 vs 3.5). Dead Center's advantage is ratings volume (6 vs 1) and iOS requirement (6.0 vs 16.6). On price, update cadence, ads and in-app purchases there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Dead Center sells 6 one-off in-app purchases and Color Switch sells 8 one-off in-app purchases. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

Color Switch holds the better App Store score, 4.0 against 3.5. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Dead Center has 6 ratings behind it against 1, so its average is the more settled of the two.

Dead Center ships an update every 4 months, Color Switch every 5 months. The most recent releases landed on November 6, 2026 and November 2, 2026 respectively.
